Two Standout Places to Stay in Tokyo

Return to main article

Asakusa View Hotel
Located in Asakusa, one of Tokyo's historic districts. Request a traditional tatami-floored suite; they're roomy enough for families and just steps from a rooftop garden and wooden soaking tubs. (3-17-1 Asakusa, Taito-ku; 81-3/3847-1111; viewhotels.co.jp/asakusa/english; tatami suites from $370.)

Keio Plaza Hotel
In Shinjuku—a centrally located neighborhood—the Keio Plaza has a seventh-floor open-air pool and kid-size Japanese robes and slippers; upper-floor rooms have fantastic views. (2-2-1 Shinjuku, Shinjuku-ku; 81-3/3344-0111; keioplaza.com; doubles from $205.)
